Powers that be inside the Democrat party are in a war over her seat. The same side ( graded on a bell curve) wants to have the governor appoint a woman of their choosing that is in the CA legislature. The other side is Pelosi and Schiff trying to keep the seat warm as it is to get Schiff a leg up in the up coming election and they are willing to use the last few years of Feinstein life no matter how embarrassing or unfair it is to a sickly 90 year old woman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deephaven Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 So all you think Mitch is too old, yet he is the exact same age that Trump the last time he was elected. Ie, you are implying Trump is too old. Pretty sure somehow there will be some idiot exception as that would make sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like Fetterman, neither of them have the mental capacity to serve their roles. McConnell could be 10 years younger, or older, doesn't matter .... it's his current mental state that is the cause for concern. EDIT: And yes, I do agree anyone over 70 should be gone and/or prohibited from public office Edited August 31, 2023 by Bontz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two weeks before he died he drove his own car and ran his senior hockey league 3 days a week. Many of my Fathers friends were high functioning into their late 80s and a few in their mid to late 90s. It is not the number so much as it is the rate of deterioration of ones mental abilities. My dads closest friend from boy hood till his death ended up spending his last few year fighting Alzheimer's. Not everyone is the same. My mother died about a week shy of 90 and Her condition reminds very much of or current president. At 80 she became easily confused and it progressed from there over the next 10 years. She was an RN who worked in an emergency room for much of her career and then managed a nursing facility for the last 15 years of her career. It was tough to see her slip away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Skidooski Posted August 31, 2023 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted August 31, 2023 Anyone over 70 shouldn’t be allowed to run for office of anything outside of nursing home activities 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deephaven Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Love how for one it is too old but for another not. It's obvious all people age differently, but seriously voting for someone that old?? I don't care if they are fit now, that can change in a heartbeat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was successful business man in his working career and heavily involved in the community at one point holding a seat on a town council. At 90 he played both hockey and Tennis multiple times a week and volunteered to be an alter boy at his church when they ran short. Not a day that I knew him would I call him mentally diminished. He lived to be 98 and as I my dad put it he just didn't come down for breakfast one morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not everyone can and like already stated people can easily take a turn once they get into their advanced years. People supposedly working for us common folk and in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s just seems absurd to me.

Spend time with your family and friends….enjoy life etc I think what Reagan did should be the benchmark. When it becomes obvious that you have dementia or Alzheimer's or just get shaky it is time to retire from public life and go golfing or whatever. That means that you don't get hounded by the press or asked questions of state anymore. I think George Bush did well with this and so did Carter. I think Feinstein's family should be ashamed. Yes I have never been in political alignment with Diane but she was a powerful force in politics for a long time and does not deserve her current treatment. I can see Mitch not running again and maybe taking a knee early if he so chooses but the way the media is flailing about gleefully planning his resignation is despicable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

racer254 Posted September 1, 2023 Share Posted September 1, 2023 I agree, these mentally incapacitated politcians should not be making decisions for their constiuents. This happened during their tenure. But, damn in the case of fetterman, democrats voted him in, even knowing his mental state. Both parties need to agree, but one will continue to hold the other to a higher standard. Alinsky rules for dems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly glad you caught on to my sarcastic joke..Dumbski Anyone showing signs of cognitive disorder.... Should be shown the door immediately. And that leaves Trump out, absolutely nothing wrong with him He's sharp as a tack. It can also happen to younger people ...ei Fetterman. Trump is scrutinized by the media and any evidence of him slipping will be brought to the forefront very quickly.... Hell they were claiming he had Parkinson's when he walked cautiously down a wet ramp. If he had the gaffes, tumbles and mumblings of Biden he would have been long removed from the office.

Most of the elected officials are just a spokesperson especially the president. Getting rid of the lobbyists is a slippery slope though, nobody likes them when they're against what you believe in, but they're awfully nice to have around when they're on your side 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have your head so far up his ass it’s impossible for you to admit it. Pull out, take a deep breath and get a dose of hard reality for once.
